Very cool; the cover slides on from the left.
When the cover comes off you flip it over; it stores the clam-shell foot pedal and accessories.
There are some places that a flower pattern just should not be.

Singer 353 Genie (1973)
The Genie from 1973 is my 1st venture into plastic covered machines. Part of a select group of vintage portables the Genie is a great little machine. Classic 70's styling; straight lines and orange flower motif.
Here she is naked. She needed needle bar and timing adjustments; that was straight forward but I had never seen a thread tension mechanism like this so it took a little time to figure that out.

My local repair guy had one of these in his shop for repairs.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised at how heavy it was.
The tension dial is the same on the Singer 700 series Touch & Sews.
Hi thanks for looking things over, I am going to take a sewing class from one of the local experts when the next class comes up and this should be perfect for carting around.
ReplyDeleteThey are nice collectors items.
